Title: Method and apparatus for containing and suppressing explosive detonations
Inventor: DONOVAN JOHN L
IPC: A62D3/00
Filed: 1999-11-08
Granted: 2004-04-01
Abstract: A mobile apparatus, and method of operation, for controlling and suppressing the explosive destruction of munitions by detonation in an explosion chamber. The apparatus comprises a double-walled steel explosion chamber which is moved by wheeled carriage means to a desired location. Granular shock-damping silica sand is introduced into fillable cavities within the chamber walls, ceiling and floor prior to use. After use, the sand is removed to lighten the chamber prior to transport. The floor of the chamber is covered with granular shock-damping pea gravel which may be added before use and removed before further transport. A munition to be destroyed is placed within an open-topped steel fragmentation containment unit. Vaporizable plastic bags of energy-absorbing water are disposed about the munition in a spaced array. An array of vent pipes vents the chamber into manifolds leading to an expansion tank or scrubber for further cooling and environmental treatment of the explosion products.

Title: A radio system and a data transmission in a radio system
Inventor: PAAVONEN TAPIO
IPC: H04W72/02
Filed: 1993-08-17
Granted: 1995-09-07
Abstract: The invention relates to a radio system and a method of transmitting data in a radio system, in which each base station (BS) has a radio channel operating as a call channel for signalling between the base station (BS) and mobile radio stations (MS). User data can be transmitted on control channels among the actual control signalling, but the data transmission may block the control channel and prevent the normal operation of the control channel. In the invention, the radio system comprises for the user data transmission at least one radio channel operating like a control channel, but transmitting signalling that prevents the mobile stations from selecting the radio channel as a control channel.

Title: Loudspeaker systems
Inventor: NEVILL STUART MICHAEL
IPC: H04R1/28
Filed: 1998-04-29
Granted: 2002-05-30
Abstract: The loudspeaker system includes a loudspeaker drive unit (2) and a tube (4) acoustically coupled to the rear of the loudspeaker drive unit for leading away and absorbing sound waves produced at the rear of the loudspeaker drive unit. The tube is acoustically coupled to the loudspeaker drive unit by a hollow resonant enclosure (6) and the loudspeaker drive unit is mounted at an aperture (8) in an external wall of the enclosure. The tube communicates with the interior of the enclosure and extends outwardly from the enclosure. There is a significant change in acoustic impedance where the tube communicates with the interior of the enclosure. The fundamental resonant frequencies of the enclosure and the tube each lie between the first and second frequencies but the Helmholtz resonant frequency of the tube, when its distal end is open, lies below the first frequency. The effect of the enclosure is to "short circuit" sound at the frequencies of the higher order resonances of the tube so that those resonances are not excited to any significant extent.
